FAQs
Trex recommends using screws designed for composite decking, such as those made from stainless steel or coated to resist corrosion. Avoid using regular wood screws as they can cause splitting or rust.
Yes, Trex composite decking expands and contracts with temperature fluctuations, as with most composite materials. To account for this natural movement, it?s essential to leave a gap between boards during installation. The recommended gap is 5mm to 8mm for end-to-end board spacing and 3mm to 5mm between side edges of the boards. These gaps ensure that the decking can expand and contract without causing buckling or warping.
To clean Trex decking, use a mild soap solution and warm water. A soft-bristle brush or mop can help remove dirt. For tougher stains, a composite deck cleaner is recommended. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that can damage the surface.
Yes, Trex decking features a slip-resistant surface, which is especially beneficial for pool decks and areas exposed to moisture. The texture helps reduce the likelihood of slipping even when wet.
No, Trex composite decking does not require sealing or staining. The capped surface protects the decking from moisture, staining, and fading, so no additional maintenance like staining or sealing is necessary.
